What you ask for was done for several hundred years during the Enlightenment. Scientists worked hard to find empirical evidence for biblical history in the earth. The result was the recognition that the evidence is not there. What is there is evidence for Uniformitarian geology, Evolution, Big-Bang cosmology, etc.

Also, you will note that never do any of the creationists on this board, or anywhere else for that matter, present evidence which supports their position. They merely point out areas of disagreement amongst evolutionists. Why do they do this? Because they have nothing else. There is no evidence supporting literal biblical history, only evidence that we haven’t yet figured out exactly how things did happen.

There is evidence for it, whether your or my interpretations of the evidence matches is another topic..

As for the examples you pointed out (there is -some- empirical evidence for those (all except uniformitarianism, which by today’s is disproven), it all matters (your-everyone’s, mine included,
preconcieved notions).

Of course mankind has not -proven empirically- how “it happened”, but definition the past happened once, and you can not retest it, nor can you infer that macroevolution happened for certain..the best you can ever do is infer (hypothocise) to the best of your ability what happened with the forensic evidence you have!

That is what both creation theory, and macro-evolutionary theory do!!!
